Default who can testify???

Should I go with the Intrax lowering springs and KYB struts or K-Spec gold series coil overs. I want to know who have tried either or and what the ride difference is. The car is a 95 Accent and is used mainly for the track but will be on the road eventually.

Coilovers are your best bet. KYBs with the lowered Intrax springs will die out quick and would probably cost the same amount as the coilovers later down the road. BTW coilovers are great for the track.

I would do coilovers, as in springs if you dont like the ride heights you can lower it more on one side than the other etc. Also for auto-x you can adjust the camber (if you get the KSPORT ones) which will help with your turning on the course. Also it has damper adjusting. Check out ksportusa.com or the group buy section for them if they are still available.

Plus they are pretty!!

so if i have 1.6 B&G springs with the kyb's and cut the bumpstops just a little bit to regain some travel back, i would last a while right?? i live in florida so the roads are pretty decent, not many potholes....
